Hi All,
I am just a novice, making plans for my first planted tank (probably low or mid-tech). I have read here and there that it is worthwhile to put in some floating plants or certain stems temporarily during a tank startup to avoid initial algea outbreaks. Do you have any recommendations on such plants and experience following a similar method?
As I would be starting from zero, with a non-mature-filter media, what are some steps that I should take to minimize initial algea?
Thanks
